Aztecs get mapcontrol and relics for almost no cost/ delay of their boom compared to persians if they try. If pers trys to get mapcontol vs aztecs they just die trying when aztecs also commits fully or they´ll die in early imp when aztecs decides to play def. When pers goes full boom aztecs pressure a bit with double monastery boom and get relics and eco advantage by forcing lcavs. As people already mentioned the aztec also wins in late game due to champs which are spammable for ever with azt relic bonus but this stage of the game would not be reached anyway. Even if boths civs just boom aztecs monks / SO / pikeman is an army persians cannot beat and its also cheap once researched since only few of those gold powerunits are needed to neutralize bbc hc. Aztecs boom/eco > persians btw.

Nah lcavs can compete for mapcontrol thats all but why would byz go 1tc smush anyway when he can just boom and win the game early imp when bad-map mongols obviously has to go for some boomfocking suicidal strats like scouts or early def castle? When mongols just boom byz takes mapcontrol and puts pressure on gold with fwd 1 monastery/ sw come 18-19 minute and the game is over in late castle or early imp too. Mongols cannot push a redemption civ thats why they have no chance if their own map sucks._Melkor said:Mongol can totally play aggressive vs a monk civ in castle age. LC spam really does the trick.
